Shattered, the porcelain mare
Sent tumbling into the wire
Designed by man to harm, to exclude
Lattice of razor slices
Opening the pristine white
Like fireworks of plasma
The plume of equine blood
So red
The constellations will fall
As searing trails
from their godless skies above
Their constitutions will fail
As a tectonic shift
cracks the earth like a fragile egg
Ravaging all of their comforts
Their monuments of shame
Eroded into dust, their world
To time but a fading stain
He had carried them to war
On broken backs they rode
No hand to brandish weaponry
Nor desire to destroy
The sands of bitter time they grind
betwixt their broken yellowed teeth
Violence their only expression
At any cost they’ll speak
With their Braided metal fences
The dawn of man’s true nature has arrived
All that does live too shall die
An accelerant of such forces
In Mans endless thirst for plight
Eviscerating helpless handless gods

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

Ultime album de Serpent Column, Kathodos est une perle rare de black metal. Ce qui saute aux yeux, c'est le soin apporté à la dimension technique : Theophonos créé un ensemble d'une cohésion parfaite et utilise des jeux d'échos avec des riffs dévastateurs qui vont et reviennent de manière différente ("Kathodos"/"Anodos", première et septième pistes, etc.). Cet album est en somme un moyen de nous enfermer dans un palais des glaces sur lequel Theophonos tire à coups de boulets de canons. Insane ! Jordan Vauvert

What a BEAST of an album. When it comes to blending black metal and mathcore, these guys and Hoplites are the clear leaders of the pack. This album is sheer annihilation of everything in it's path. Pure chaos and destruction. And it is beautiful. Ryan
The metal’s band revelatory new record crosses genres and styles, effortlessly combining seemingly incompatible subgenres. Bandcamp Album of the Day Apr 26, 2024

Habituellement, j'écris mon commentaire dans la foulée une fois que j'ai terminé tel ou tel album mais là... J'ai vraiment besoin de quelques minutes, pour reprendre mes esprits. Parce que Serpent Column a totalement perdu le sien dans Endless Detainment. Cet E.P., c'est un cataclysme de black/death metal cacophonique et hystérique qui tient sur vingt-et-une minutes et qui ne s'arrête jamais — au point de s'achever avec un fade out. Tout tient ensemble grâce à un sens de la technique inhumain ! Jordan Vauvert
